Praise for The Jigsaw Man:
-
‘The Jigsaw Man ranks amongst the very best debut thrillers – we’re talking top-ten territory here – I’ve read this past decade . . . It evokes, vibrantly and indelibly, a world I’ve never even glimpsed, much less entered – neither in literature nor in life: a London where those most in need of help are those most often denied it . . . Matheson’s voice is exciting, urgent… and, now more than ever, vital’ A.J. Finn, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window
-
‘This book is gruesomely good’ Lesley Kara, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Rumour and Who Did You Tell?
-
‘Crime fiction has a significant new star’ Sarah Hilary, author of Someone Else’s Skin

‘Buckle up, readers! From the first scene, Nadine Matheson takes us on a heart-pounding roller coaster ride.

I hope this is only the first of many adventures for her’ Tami Hoag, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Boy

So tense! The characters feel real - people with flaws and determination (both the investigators and criminals). Some of it is very gory and makes a difficult listen. But the story and the main characters make the blood baths worth wading through.
